| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field depicts a crowned figure, likely Queen Hedwig I (Jadwiga), standing facing, rendered in a schematic Gothic style typical of late 14th-century Polish hammered coinage. The figure appears robed, with stylized drapery indicated by deeply struck linear folds. Two pellets or ornamental devices flank the upper field. The coin is bordered by a beaded or pelleted inner circle, characteristic of Kraków mint production of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hedwig I — known in Polish as Jadwiga — was elected king (not queen) of Poland in 1384 at age ten, a deliberate constitutional choice by the Polish nobility to preserve her sovereign authority independent of any future husband. The deniers struck at Kraków during her brief reign predate her 1386 marriage to Władysław II Jagiełło, which extinguished the Piast line and founded the Jagiellonian dynasty. At 0.29 g these are among the lightest silver issues in the medieval Polish series, reflecting the chronic bullion shortages that plagued the Kraków mint through the 1380s.
